Blah blah blah I’m happy for them but those quotes are god awful attempted poetry. Like real bad. Her heart is full of deep ocean minerals? What does that even mean??

Regarding Obama’s mic drop / burn of Trump during Mean Tweets, I’m just going to leave this here:

I am forever indebted to whomever dubbed him “Aunt Pittypat”.

The Brexit polls were much closer than the U.S. Presidential polls. Leave was actually in the lead at points. Trump is not, by a long shot.

There’s a lot of those people, agree. BUT, the level of conservativeness is still relative. Like, only a dude like Charlie Baker could win here. Any more “republican” and no way. There are a lot of “townies” (redneck equivalent) with backwards politics and racist attitudes, but on the spectrum, it’s not like Alabama…

I have and consider it the proof of Bernies eventual defeat if he had won the nomination. By now, he would just be another sellout to his fans.

I think it’s entirely possible that Clinton will be very much like Warren and Sanders. She no longer has to fit into the narrow space between “shrill and emotional” and “not tough”. She’s got the support of her party.

My favorite so far is “Cheeto Voldermort.”

I’ve been considering the same! “Constipated smirk” has to be the best way anyone has ever described anything, ever.

My parents are kind of in with the Mass political scene and they say that word on the street is she isn’t interested in the Whitehouse, as prez or VP. I think she is great in the senate! Also, my mom and I laughed heartily at the notion that Curt Schilling might try to challenge her. I love the Red Sox, I really do,…

*Explaining 2016 to future generations*

I think Robertson, Trump & Friends are very well aware that they are lying, and in fact are quite proud of themselves for conning people so successfully.

It’s only more terrifying for people who understand the procedure and reasons why it would be used. Remember, a large percentage of people believe in the historical accuracy of biblical events.

Is there literally any more egregious example of “waving the bloody shirt” than claiming your opponent literally supports murdering healthy babies?

You’re right. Bartlet (rightly) stood his ground because he was an older outsider campaigning against a younger party favorite. He needed to ‘punch up’ but it had to be done in a way that made him seem competent.

Michelle gets to play the candidate card because she’s not running, and part of her job out there is not…

Yes, the “shitting on the chessboard and strutting around as if they’ve won”. ;)

I am sure she will do some good. She just won’t do ALL the good we want her to. She will certainly do a better job than Trump + Pence, and if Democrats take the Senate (and maybe even the House), it is possible she might be able to get a great deal of good done. By many accounts, she is also better at wheeling,…

When Michelle calls him “their candidate” she also reinforces the fact that DT did not somehow just show up from outer space, that he is at the top of the Republican Party, so no matter how much any other Republican candidate disavows Trump the party voters certainly didn’t.
